A halfling and a ratkin convert a coffee shop into a magical cat cafe.
Ferndell is a slow place. At least, that's what Farah thought for the last three years. She has a comfortable but directionless routine behind the counter at Ambrewsia Cafe; it’s a quiet life, but an upgrade from being dumped on the street by her coven when she failed to develop magical abilities.
Then her boss decides to retire, a talking cat shows up behind the compost with a broken leg, and whispers begin to spread about a magical spring that can awaken dormant powers.
With a slew of would-be familiars barging into her tidy café, resulting in an unexpected bargain with her reclusive neighbor Rune, Farah must make an impossible choice: inherit the café and the quiet life she’s come to love, or risk everything to win back her family.
Farah’s Familiars is a cozy, low-stakes fantasy novella about belonging, chosen family, and discovering love where you least expect it. Farah’s story is best enjoyed by fans of "A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping" by Sangu Mandanna, "A Rival Most Vial" by R.K. Ashwick, and "How to Lose a Goblin in Ten Days" by Jessie Sylva.
